I prefer the first approach, not automatically unmounting upon UBI device 
change. One plus for this version is that the user might have issued the 2nd 
"ubi part" by mistake and didn't really want to unmount the UBIFS filesystem 
in the first place.

But I have no strong feeling here. So I'm open to suggestions from others 
which version is the preferred one.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Stefan
